16 Hear me, O Lord, for thy sure love And kindness is exceeding good; Turn thou to me, according to Thy tender mercies multitude.
17 From thy servant hide not thy face, In this my trouble soon attend;
18 Draw nigh my soul, and it redeem, And from mine enemies me defend.
19 To thee is my reproach well known, My shame and my causeless disgrace; My adversaries and their ways Are open all before thy face.
20 Reproach hath broke my heart, and grief Abounds in me: I looked for some To pity me, but there was none, True comforters I found not one.
